Position the contrary, our language has

We do not perceive that the Post is boom :
ing the temperance plan that it declared so
reas enable and just. Is it afraid that IL
would fail, or was it insincere? 1t is easy to
upbraid a contemporary for not doing a Ger
tam thing, tut when that is done Il respon-
| siIiIity attaches to the upbraider. We think
the Intelligeucer's article upon the subject
has been fully justified.
Prof. c. c. Parker desires to secure the
services of the famous public reader. MIR. A
=. Burbank. of New York, for an evenings
entertainment sometime during the latter
part of this month. In order TO do so he ha'
10 guarantee him a certain amount and vii
therefore first ascertain whether he can ex
pect - GOOD attendance from our citizens be
fore engaging him. Mr.. Burbank is consid
cred the best entertainer and public reader il
this country where he has read in nearl'
all the leading cities. He also enjoys ar
English reputation, having appeared in tina
country some seven years ago. 1t is to b.
hoped Prof. Parker will receive sufficient en-
t enlargement to justify him in making the en-
, ga.emeut.
